Why My Throat Is Getting Sore Again?

Hi my name is ashley, i weigh 145 and i m 18. I was diagnosed with strep throat about 4 weeks ago and was put on amoxicillin for 10 days, skipped two days but finished the antibiotic. It came back the week after I finished but didn t test positive for it, so I was put on Augmentin for 10 days and nasonex for a month. I just finished the augmentin two days ago and my throat is getting sore again, I don t know what this is?

Hello,

It is likely that the organism causing the infection is resistant to Augmentin and you may need to change the same. Please discuss this with your ENT doctor.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
